Setting Sail: A Collection of Modern-Day Parables, by Kathy A. Wittman, is a book about ordinary people who have been touched by God in extraordinary ways. The faith that they experience is based on their quests for "treasures in heaven" (Matthew 6: 20). All these characters reflect God's grace as they "yearn for those distant, gleaming shores".  Despite storm clouds and tumultuous waves, as they contemplate their past, present, and future, they will soon set sail "beneath a brilliant, azure sky".
